Any plans to update this widget beyond 2.6.3? Perhaps allow a transparent background? Love the widget!
[G1 Apps and Games] Mahagon Coral:
two other nice additions would be:

1. other weather providers (accuweather, or one of the major european providers)

2. clicking on the days shouldn't take you to a big desktop website with practically no additional info, either another window inside the "app" or the option to disable the clickability would be really nice.

I am definitely thinking about spending the buck for it, but it doesn't make much sense to me when "freeware" performs comparably, but with better weather info :(
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
This is why support on this project is stopped.

By the way, it is impossible to use AccuWeather due to non commercial term of uses.
[G1 Apps and Games] Mahagon Coral:
Sad to here that...

Will you be making a new (pure) version anytime later on or can I let my hopes down seeing a real quality (4x4) weather widget?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
for weather ? no, you can forget the idea.

But other Pure widgets, yes, I'll do.
[G1 Apps and Games] TDQuiksilver:
I was totally caught off guard by seeing an update available today. 2.6.4!

Any details on the bug fixes koxx?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
- remerge of some pure calendar cal for calendar management

- fix update problems with 'manual update only'
[G1 Apps and Games] th3gh05t:
Hello Francois,

I just purchased this widget, but it does not show in the "Widgets" selection menu. When I click on the app, it doesn't have any options at all. Just a link to this thread.

Please help me! I want to use this!

th3gh05t
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Well, did you understand that you had to keep the free version installed ?

what you bought is just an unlock key, OK ?
[G1 Apps and Games] th3gh05t:
Oh ok, so we have to install the free version?
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
yes, install free and unlock key apps.
[G1 Apps and Games] grabiarz:
Any way that you could update the widget to open up the mobile version of wund (i.wund.com) instead of desktop?
[G1 Apps and Games] apfroggy0408:
Reinstalled and still not showing up.
[G1 Apps and Games] apfroggy0408:
Update: Installed another weather widget and it also is not showing up for me. I wonder what is causing the problem.
[G1 Apps and Games] kakadeluxe:
Thanks knoxx

You international mod (b12) is work fine and the language spanish too :D
[G1 Apps and Games] mannyb:
Very nice, many thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] nk111:
excellent! just when I started to worry but german accents not showing up I found your updated version :)

thank you!
[G1 Apps and Games] pagubg:
In the large forecast mode, the name of the city is shown behind the weather icons. Can anyone else confirm this?
[G1 Apps and Games] mannyb:
Same here (JFv1.50 ADP1.5).
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
For large widget, I've just started working on it. It is absolutly not finished ....

layout will change a lot (to show days, temp ...).

More tonight (in 6/7h ... french time).

ps: if somebody have a good link where all layout are fully explained, I take !
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:

improved large view.

Current temperature is fake at this time (show be real in next version).

[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Awesome job! (But it looks like the current temp still displays in C even if you have F selected. )

Edit: Or is the Current Temp still a work in progress? Either way, you're doing a stellar job.
[G1 Apps and Games] Malix82:
Keeps getting better!

Noticed that the large widget shows 'problem loading widget' on landscape mode
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
lol

corrected in b15 ;)

should be OK since b14.

have you configured language corretly ?

I tryed with "en", everything was in "°F"

And many thanks to everybody for support !!!!!!
[G1 Apps and Games] Malix82:
That was fast :D

Anyway, I gather that 12C/5C stands for hi/lo temperatures (or so I've understood it this far). Its great that the tiny widget tells that, but any chance of getting current temp. to tiny as well? Or option to select?
[G1 Apps and Games] DSBP1:
everytime I try to install b15....it says that it is already in the system...but I am still stuck on b13....how can I remove b13...whats the code..
[G1 Apps and Games] apfroggy0408:
If it's installed go to menu > settings > applications > manage applications and uninstall it from there.

Anyways, the new update is working perfectly for me.
[G1 Apps and Games] DSBP1:
thanks a lot man...
[G1 Apps and Games] Malix82:
Something fishy with the Tiny widget, show "9Chanc..5Ch..." other sizes seem to work great tho :)

edit:

also seems that I need to create every forecast widget twise for them to appear o_O
[G1 Apps and Games] start_developing:
This one works awesome. Thank you very much. :)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
first bug : corrected in b16

second bug : detected by myself too, strange, and not solved....

current temp in tiny is work in progress. ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] biAji:
How about progress in chinese display? @@

Wow, you don't have a sleep, koxx?
[G1 Apps and Games] :
Hi, installed sky-widget on german FW1.5 and i'm satisfied! This is :eek: great.

Hopefully this will be a market download soon with xda-devs support. :)

I only changed the update frequency to 6hours. I believe weather doesn't change so rapidly so 3 hours only drains the my weak g1 battery.
[G1 Apps and Games] Rekna:
How do you specify an update frequency of less than an hour? I tried .5 and it causes a crash.

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
Where do you live that has such a drastic temperature change that happens in under an hour? You must have the immune system of God.
[G1 Apps and Games] Rekna:
I like to know the current temperature. Anyway if the app doesn't handle fractions then it should produce an error message saying whole numbers only instead of crashing.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Lol ... I made a lot of modifications. AND I DON'T have time to test everything. This is not a commercial software, and this is a beta. Conclusion : you are my tester !

And yes, currently, i doesn't handle "fraction" or anything lower than 1 hour.
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
And honestly I don't see the point in trying to implement it so I wouldn't waste your valuable time. New update works great as usual! Keep up the good work!
[G1 Apps and Games] mannyb:
A few bugs. First of all, sometimes the widget "hangs". Nothing will happen when I tap it, the forecast window won't open. Usually it'll snap out of it after five or ten seconds, but a few time it has remained frozen for much longer, up to a minute.

Second bug is that sometimes when I open the forecast window up it'll list "today" several times over.

Running JFv1.50 ADP1.5, no custom home apps, no custom themes, a minimum of apps running.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
for the first bug : never seen.

for the second : it should be corrected since b14 (if I remember).
[G1 Apps and Games] Rekna:
Sorry if you took my post as a digg at you. It wasn't meant to be. I was just reporting the crash.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
no worry ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:

+ current temp in all widget

I won't be available during the next 7 days (travels), and I'll have very few time for widget upgrade.

I will give you enought time to find all bugs ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] Rekna:
Awesome job, I love the new current temperature. I was wondering earlier why the temperature never changed.... lol
[G1 Apps and Games] siriuxs:

Great job! Love having current temp on the icon now...
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
I have contacted jsharkey to see if he's interested in version merging.

The answer is yes. We'll try to merge code. I'll create a branch to avoid problem in a first time.

We plan to put the widget on the market soon. When it will be polished.
[G1 Apps and Games] biAji:
Sweet!! Maybe after emage, I can get the source from svn and modify it to provide a patch.

o(∩_∩)o
[G1 Apps and Games] pagubg:
Koxx, is it possible to integrate some way to manually request the weather information? Something like "refresh" buton for the widget? Sometimes, i am not connected to internet and can not reload the weather information when i connect. I need to re-add the widget again, to take actual forecast. It will be great if i can do this without delete/add widget everytime i need the info.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Yes, it is work in progress.

I think it will be ready in 7/8 days only ...

I'll try to upload my code in 10/12h on SVN.

But i you want to work on it earlyier, here is my current code : http://koxx3.free.fr/Sky.rar

[G1 Apps and Games] Dark X Dragon:
This is amazing and I thank you very much.

Not only have you allowed me to use this great widget, you are merging it back.

I love that sense of team work and community (for lack of better way to word it).

Stuff like that is the whole moral base for Open Source.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
code uploaded to SVN ! (see first page)

if you want to make donation for my work, no problem you can ! by paypal here at

We'll register Sky widget on market soon.

I'll continue dev in few days ;)

Hi koxx when did you release a Market version ?

Even if there is not more lot of update
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Hello imfloflo,

Jeffrey wants to avoid google api usage, and it doesn't seems to be interested to publish my mod as it is.

And i am not registered on market.

I'll need donation to register myself on the market... i have received 5$... i still need 20$ to register
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
That's pretty curious, since Mr. Sharkey now works at Google. Still, would it not be possible to just make the weather api a setting, so as to allow the user to choose what service to fetch the data from?

Also, I submitted a ticket to the googlecode site suggesting that sky be brought into line with the published Widget Design Guidelines (particularly with respect to the usage of the same boundary box and standard widget frame). Your thoughts on the matter?
[G1 Apps and Games] Settembrini:
frog suffering from swine flu

Hi,

don't get me wrong, I like the widget, but I don't like precision of the forecast. That is the lack of precision? Really I can't believe it, where the hell do you get the data from?

I can only assume it is an imprisoned frog in a glas climbing up and down a ladder and suffering form swine flu.

[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
Yeah, the weather data from the google API seems to be off by quite a bit.

If you compare the temperature from weatherbug or weather channel to google weather, the google weather is usually wrong by a few degrees.

Thats probably the reason why jeff sharkey didn't use the google apis in the first place.

I've switched over to the "js weather" widget for now. It seems to be more accurate. I'm not sure where he's getting his weather data from.
[G1 Apps and Games] the_alien:
Nice, thanks. Started doing the same and found this thread *throwing away his done work*
[G1 Apps and Games] uberingram:
I was starting to notice that as well.
[G1 Apps and Games] Rekna:
I have noticed this also but unless someone knows a different source that is more accurate and provides the same location coverage as the google api we are stuck with an inaccurate measure.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
First, Hi everybody. I'am back for few days (before my 2 weeks holidays) ;)

- I have detected a refresh 'bug' that can perturb weather updates. I have corrected it (now, update frequency should works better).

- I have added a manual update possibility (to request it : go in forecast details, and click on title of window).

- You can use a "0h" period to disable autoupdate.

And everything is available in b19 !

http://koxx3.free.fr/SkyInternationalKoxx_b19.apk

Google API is not official. This is the main problem...

I didn't noticed problem with Google weather informations.
[G1 Apps and Games] smurphete:
Can someone double check for me that this widget doesn't work for Sydney, Australia? Or is it just something I did wrong?

Sorry if this has been answered previously, but here are the screenshots.
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
Sorry, but I don't think your using my version (modded for internationnal), but the official version (US compatibility only).

So ... you'll have to remove your current version (available in first page) to use mine, and everything should be fine ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] zgmf-x322a:
widget acceptable but its making the device slower :S

prefered the weather channel app :D

Does the auto refreshed location update the "widget title" automatically?
[G1 Apps and Games] pagubg:
Now this widget is perfect for my needs :) I have everything i want :)

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] cssvb94:
What about manual refresh?

Is it possible to implement that feature, so I'll sync it when I want - once a day or once in 2 days for example.

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
To answer :

yes, it does !

hehehe :)

It works since few versions ... go to first page.
[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
B21 works very nice. I really like the auto refresh feature.

How about adding a last update time or next update time so that we will know when the temperature will be refreshed next.

Thanks!

Also, at what time do the icons switch from daytime to night time and vice versa?

Its 8:45pm here in California, and my weather icon is still showing sunny. The original jsharkey weather widget shows a moon when it does its 5:50pm update.

thanks,

dave

Good ideas, added to work in progress (see first page)

And, you're right, I changed day/night hours compared to original widget.
[G1 Apps and Games] snear:
Auto update of location doesn't seem to work for me. On 502h a2sd
[G1 Apps and Games] koxx:
It is currently and succesfully tested on Dude 0.9.3 and 1.1a.

Have you enabled 'netowrk location' in android parameters ?
[G1 Apps and Games] snear:
Yep all enabled,gps & network location
[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
Yeah the auto update location doesn't seem to work quite right. If I manually refresh the widget, it doesn't refresh my new location.

However, if I go into google maps and refresh my location and then go to the sky widget and manually refresh, my location gets changed correctly.

My guess is that there is a missing API that needs to be called to refresh your current location before retrieving it.
[G1 Apps and Games] snear:
i'll give that a go cheers

I loved the widget on JF 1.50 but keep getting force close issues on JF 1.51. The only other thing that could be causing my FC issues is my recent move of apps/data to the SD card... Is that a known issue?
[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
If it was you would see more people complaining about. Must be some problem on your side.

I have jf 1.51 and apps to sd and no problem.

Only known issue now is that the current location doesn't get updated unless u manually update the gps location via google maps.
[G1 Apps and Games] millowster07:
FYI All I have enrolled in Latitude and mine updates on the 2 hour slot I told it to in the options. U have to have Latitude enabled for the autoupdate to work. I did not have it on when I started my freash 1.5 up. It would force close and gave me errors. So When Lat is enable all is well. It locates my pos using Agps which it should since its in my pocket all the time.

If you make it update less then that it should pull the data from lat when it updates.

OR it may not be linked at all. Not sure... Just that lat off I cant auto locate or autoupdate.

Just throwing that into the mix. :-)

nbimg.exe -p 42978 -n -s -F temp.bmp -D GENE10000 -S 1024 -T 0x600
rename temp.bmp.nb splash.nb
rename temp.bmp.nbh splash.nbh

3 、 关于 NBimg 的用法（Usage）

Mandatory arguments:
-F <filename> Filename to convert.
If the extension is BMP it will be converted to NB.
If the extension is NB it will be converted to BMP.

Optional arguments:
-w <width> Image width in pixels. If not specified will be autodetected
.
（Gene : -w 240)
-h <height> Image height in pixels. If not specified will be autodetecte
d.

-t <pattern> Manually specify the padding pattern (usually 0 or 255).
（Gene : -t 0)
-p <size> Manually specify the padding size.
（Gene : -p 42978)
-n Do not add HTC splash signature to NB file.
（Gene : -n)
-s Output smartphone format.
（Gene : -s)
NBH arguments: (only when converting from BMP to NBH)
-D <model_id> Generate NBH with specified Model ID (mandatory)
（Gene : -D GENE10000)
